mandatory lesbian posted:hetero privilege is having to explain to cis-female partners that no i'm not gonna dump them to suck some dick out the blue homo privilege is having to explain that "no, I'm with you because I want to be not because I'm waiting for the right opposite sex person to come along so I can dump you for a more widely socially acceptable relationship." bi-people aren't trusted by hetero or homo because hetero and homo don't understand why we can't just "pick a side" and stick with it or that not picking a side doesn't mean you can't be faithful to the person you are with. We are always lusting after the gender we are not currently with, even though we are with them because we want to be, according to insecure partners. Being bi is a foreign concept that they cannot fully grasp. Edit: granted, I couldn't even admit out loud that I was bisexual until last year and I've been married for almost 20 years so our relationship is mature enough that we can both point out who's hot and who's not and not feel threatened. If I'd been openly bisexual at the beginning, we probably would have had problems. Instead it was repressed and I just discounted "those" relationships as dalliances and mistakes, hormones and actual feeling be damned.

You only have hetero privilege is nobody knows you are bi. So, if you are in the closet, you are golden. Just like a homosexual person in the closet. So, not like having privilege at all.

Ah yes the lovely "how can you not want to cheat on someone if you want to gently caress people of the other sex" "I don't know, how do you manage not to do it when presumably you want to gently caress people of your preferred sex?" It's not as if it's a particularly difficult concept to grasp, I don't know why so many people seem to have trouble with it. OwlFancier fucked around with this message at 20:57 on Jan 19, 2017 |

Which was not at all the point of my post. All I was trying to say is that it's naive of others to think her life is ruined because of what happened to her. Almost nobody actually deserves solitary, but many transwomen have to beg, borrow, and steal to even get by. She's going to be able to make a good living telling her story and sounding off about politics and culture for the rest of her life if she wants it. She'll undoubtedly be the target of intense harassment, anonymous threats, etc for the rest of her life... which makes her not particularly different from any other trans person or famous woman.

Thalantos posted:Why did all the people she worked with who saw her violating OPSEC not do anything about it and not get punished? I thought you worked in the military? You should know exactly how that happened - soldiers are lazy with security all the time. If anyone even noticed she was moving data around they probably were like "oh they're trying to sneak some games at work!" or something like that. I doubt she was like wearing a big ol' hat with the text "FYI I'M STEALING SECRETS" on it. Leaks from the military and other classified information sources happen constantly. Even people doing it and sending it straight out into the public (as opposed to legit foreign spies/moles covertly sending stuff to their handlers) happens at least every couple years.

Mr. Nice! posted:What are you even trying to say? That you don't get treated like every other straight couple in the world because you have a few gay friends give you poo poo? What about when you and your girlfriend want to get married. Is anyone ever going to refuse to bake you a cake? Replace 'a few gay friends' with 'every gay person I've ever come out to' and you're on the mark. I haven't told you what relationship I am in, nor is it pertinent. Sooo, because I get treated with dignity and respect when I erase my bi identity, I have privilege? I think you need to unfuck yourself, and quick.

I doubt she was like wearing a big ol' hat with the text "FYI I'M STEALING SECRETS" on it. I mean, that's kinda exactly my point; you're supposed to report security violations. Yeah, they're awkward to work with, but, well, they're in place for a reason. People reported that they saw her bring in a CD-r into the SCIF she worked in, and no one cared that it was against regs because everyone else was bringing in movies to watch and music to listen to. Edit: I'm not in the military anymore, but part of my job when I was, was to enforce proper safeguarding of sensitive information. Like, yah, I know that soldiers are lazy and break these laws, that's why there are soldiers like me who investigated and arrested if necessary, troops who were disobeying those laws.

Just chiming in to say that ever since I came out as bi to my family, my situation's changed from "you just can't marry" ( it was assumed I was gay ) to "you can marry, but only if it's with the opposite gender". That's what it is. Conditional acceptance. Privilege isn't conditional. Circutron fucked around with this message at 03:39 on Jan 20, 2017 |

Seriously, Manning should have washed out with a GD long before she ever got deployed to a warzone. But instead they assigned her a do-nothing job in the idiot cupboard so they could pretend they actually had sufficient manning levels.

Yeah, the army is definitely terrible. I guess, maybe, my roundabout point is that she messed up, and needed to receive a punishment for that, but she was also let down by a system that let things escalate to that point.

It's standard practice, but a lot of us are still very worried what will replace them. For instance, the exact spot where civil rights were, was replaced with the "respect law enforcement" page. It may or may not be symbolic, but if it is meant to be, then it's time to prepare.
